"You guys should have asked around before you rented the house" the principal scolded them.
"Strange things happen to occupants of that house. Many youth corpers have fallen victim to the evil happenings in that house. Some have had to abandon their service year because it never stopped, no matter where they move to".

"We didn't know sir, we desperately needed an apartment at the time and that house was our best option."
Tolu told the principal.
"It started some days after we moved in; on a cold night, we heard an hysterical laughter, it continued for about an hour, then it stopped, fear gripped everyone. Immediately after it stopped, babies started crying, it continued till around 5am in the morning. This happened everyday till we moved out.
We started seeing strange looking beings, like spirits in our sitting room, it disappeared and appeared at will.

We moved to a new place, thinking we've escaped, but it became worse. We've invited almost all the clergymen in this town but they couldn't stop the strange occurrences.
This is the fifth house we've moved to and it still hasn't stopped. We're seriously contemplating leaving this state."
